A peavey and a cant hook are not the same thing.

Yup.... Born and raised in Herman, near L'Anse. Can't get more Yooper than that. Next step from there is Lake Superior.

Thanks for all the ideas. I ordered a crankshaft socket from summit because it's a new cool tool that I don't have.

I know; I'll rehab. that one of these days. When I open my storage building it reminds of that show "Hoarders".
